The FLSA establishes minimum wage, overtime pay, recordkeeping, and youth employment standards affecting employees in the private sector and in Federal, State, and local governments. Covered nonexempt workers are entitled to a minimum wage of not less than $5.85 per hour effective July 24, 2007; $6.55 per hour effective July 24, 2008; and $7.25 per hour effective July 24, 2009. Overtime pay at a rate not less than one and one-half times the regular rate of pay is required after 40 hours of work in a workweek.
Now this wage can vary for tipped employees, for restaurant servers it is about $3.25 an hour. Your place of employment should have a poster of the Fair Labor Standards Act posted where all employees can review the law.
Good luck and best wishes.
